From His Sissy:

Happy Birthday my sweet sweet Boy!! I want you to know that you are one of my most favorite people, living thirteen years is a big deal for such a special boy.I know that in life your supposed to live for the moment but today we are celebrating the past,*present*, and future.You are the sweetest thing that has ever been on this earth and you will always be my little God given angel. I want you to know that ill never regret taking care of you or staying home from doing something else because you are sick or cant make the trip. God give you to this family and to me for a very special purpose and that purpose is to show me love and has taught me a compassion that only comes from caring for someone special. You will always hold a spot in my heart. For all those times Ive scrooched up there next to you in your bed when your sick or I'm sad or just to love on you. I want to say thank you lord for the peace that i feel when I'm next to you all the time and especially those times.Remember Sissy loves you.
